Now you're trying to twist my point into saying that anyone who weeps for Il is faking it.

I don't quite think so...

I've read on a Chinese news source of mine that North Korean people can't even get on a train without being forced to cry, and that they're forced to cry twice a day for an hour at a time. Could some of the tears be genuine? Absolutely. But as someone who escaped from a similar totalitarian regime and knows the inner workings of a similar system to North Korea's, staging things like this is not even out of the ordinary there.

In China nowadays, most people hate the government's guts. But can they freely say that unless they escape? Not at all. I'd imagine it's be a similar case with North Korea. Maybe there's still people with faith in the government. Actually, that's still likely given the brainwash the government did, but people are starting to realise these governments are full of shit and lying to their people all the time, but are forced to put up with them because they have guns.
